July 15, 200322 yr 7th inning Wagner 8th inning Gagne/Smoltz 9th inning Gagne/Smolts AL is f***ed if they are losing late
July 15, 200322 yr If Dusty isn't going to use Prior because of injury, then why not get an injury replacement? It isn't that difficult you know.

July 15, 200322 yr Stop being jealous that none of your pitchers can match Willis' success. How many guys do the Phils have in the game, one right (Wolf). terrific, and without injuries we'd have one also.
July 15, 200322 yr Stop being jealous that none of your pitchers can match Willis' success. How many guys do the Phils have in the game, one right (Wolf). Dude you crack me up because it's hilarious how offended you are that someone DARES, question Willis. You talk as if Willis is the only pitcher there when he would only be in there one inning max. Hate to tell you but their are other guys in that rotation just as good as Willis because last time I checked Willis was not the whole league. "Stop being jealous that none of your pitchers can match Willis' success. How many guys do the Phils have in the game, one right (Wolf)." By the way thanks for the laugh dude. That was priceless.
July 15, 200322 yr Willis is winning for our team. If the Marlins make the playoffs, and make it to the World Series (long shot) I want to have home field advantage again. I think you would agree the same for the Phils if they made it. If Dusty Baker is not going to take a fully healthy team (Prior) and not use some players of the team, and announce who they are before the game, then I have to question whether he is playing to win.
July 15, 200322 yr terrific, and without injuries we'd have one also. We would be tied with the Phillies, they would still not be better than us. Your point is?

Yes I do want HF advantage but their is other pitchers on the team that can get the job done but of course this Arguement is pointless if Dontrelle pitches and I do want to see him pitch.
July 15, 200322 yr It makes me mad that Dusty tells two pitchers who are on the active All Star Roster that they won't pitch. What if they are in the 12th inning tied and need one of them? What will happen then?
July 15, 200322 yr I'd rather see Willis pitch 1 inning or less than one inning because I don't want see Willis unused if it's tied late in the game. Because he might have to go more than 1 inning if it goes to extra innings.
July 15, 200322 yr And what if Dusty has to use him? He told him that he wouldn't, thankfully Willis is a guy that is ready for anything. Dusty Baker is a terrible manager, it shows with all the things he does.

July 15, 200322 yr Dusty Baker is a terrible manager, it shows with all the things he does. No he isn't. Baker is one of the better managers of our time IMO.
July 15, 200322 yr Yeah, Like going to The World Series. Good players can get you anywhere. He isn't good at managing in the close situations with his bullpen and pitching staff. He has a good bullpen in Chicago, yet they always blow games, why? Dusty doesn't pull the trigger and bring in the right pitcher at the right time.

Well, Last time I checked The Cubs are doing better this year than they were last year. Also most around here blame The Marlins string of losses in the early part of the season on bad managing. Well if Managing matters like you and others have said I guess Dusty is a good manager.
July 15, 200322 yr The Cubs have changed this year. They got Remlinger in the Pen and they have gotten Choi, Grudzielanek, Karros, Miller, etc. It has changed quite a bit from last year, and they still aren't in first place in the central.

The Mets had some good players and a good manager but what happened? The Rockies had some good pitchers and what happened without a good manager so please don't try to bring this arguement up. Just on the fact that you don't like it he is not going to play Willis. That's the only reason too and you know it.

That's the only reason too and you know it. Mets suck. The pot got to them last year :lol They weren't very good players, the New York Pressure Cooker continues to work on players. I think Dusty is a terrible manager, whether he uses Willis as a starter or not. He doesn't handle pitchers well and it shows year after year. Any other manager in the NL right now would be better than him to manage our all star team that is heavily dependent on pitching.
July 16, 200322 yr I hope all of you enjoy the all star game tonight. The changes we have implemented are for you the fans. Please enjoy.
